Series: A Shade of Vampire
Book One: A Shade of Vampire
Synopsis:
On the evening of Sofia Claremont's 17th birthday, she is sucked into a nightmare from which she cannot wake.
A quiet evening walk along a beach brings her face to face with a dangerous pale creature that craves much more than her blood.
She is kidnapped to an island where the sun is eternally forbidden to shine.
An
island uncharted by any map and ruled by the most powerful vampire
coven on the planet. She wakes here as a slave, a captive in chains.
Sofia's
life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn when she is the one selected
out of hundreds of girls to join the harem of Derek Novak, the dark
royal Prince.
Despite his addiction to power and obsessive
thirst for her blood, Sofia soon realizes that the safest place on the
island is within his quarters, and she must do all within her power to
win him over if she is to survive even one more night.
Will she succeed? ...or is she destined to the same fate that all other girls have met at the hands of the Novaks?

Review:
Vampires have been done to death it seems, but this story was very unique and captured me from the first chapter. A perfect mix of mystery, sex appeal, romance, and fantasy. Definitely a book series that you will be able to read over and over again.
Book Two: A Shade of Blood
Synopsis:
When Sofia Claremont was
kidnapped to a sunless island, uncharted by any map and ruled by the
most powerful vampire coven on the planet, she believed she'd forever be
a captive of its dark ruler, Derek Novak.
Now, after months of
surviving an endless night, the morning sun may soon rise again for
Sofia. Something has possessed Derek's heart and he offers her a gift no
human slave has ever been given in the history of his cursed island:
escape.
High school, prom and a chance to move on with her life now await her.
But
will she be able to forget the horrors that steal her sleep away at
night? ... or the feelings that haunt her for that tormented prince of
darkness?

Review:
A great sequel to the first book A Shade of Vampire. Begins right where the first one left off without missing a beat. Continues on for a great story about a vampire being able to fall in love with a human. So much so that he is willing to risk his position to set her free. I love how this romance is blossoming and excited to see where it will go.
Book Three: A Castle of Sand
Synopsis:
What Sofia has with Derek feels like a sandcastle; temporary and something that the waves of life and time will soon ruin...
Since
the return of Gregor Novak, the island has turned several shades
darker. His hatred toward Sofia and thirst for fresh blood lead to a
brutal war igniting between father and son.
Meanwhile, the
hunters are gaining formidable strength and resources by the day; they
know that the safety of The Shade hangs entirely on its ability to
remain hidden from them.
And a sinister secret lies in wait for
Sofia within the bowels of an Egyptian desert ... a secret that
threatens to crush her sandcastle much sooner than she could have
expected.

Review:
Love how many twists and turns there are in this book. It keeps you guessing what will happen next. Can love prevail in a world that is surrounded by darkness? You are becoming so attached to the characters that you just want the best for them except for those evil ones that you wish would meet the Sun and burn to ash. :) Keep up the amazing work Bella Forrest. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
Book Four: A Shadow of Light
Synopsis:
Since the implosion at The Oasis and Derek's
stay at Hawk Headquarters, The Shade has fallen into a state of utter
chaos. To make matters worse, the citizens of Derek's kingdom have
become suspicious of his loyalties and accuse him of siding with the
enemy... At a time when Derek desperately needs full cooperation from
his subjects, they wish to put their own King on trial.
Meanwhile,
Sofia is being held hostage by the hunters. They are determined to rid
her of her infatuation with the vampire. She submits to the strict
routine and training they impose on her, but the only fuel that keeps
her going is the thought of reuniting with Derek - something Reuben is
fighting with every fiber of his being to ensure will never happen.
...Until
one day, out of the blue, Reuben appears to have a change of heart and
comes to Sofia with a proposal; a solution that she never dreamed
possible. A solution that would fulfil her heart's deepest desires and
secure her and Derek's future together, forever.
But can she really trust this man who is so renowned for his hatred of vampires? Does she even have a choice?

Review:
Like the other three books in this series, I was not able to put it down until I reached the last page. It was a complete page turner. I was so excited to find out what was going to happen next. It is such a great story and you can really relate to the characters.
Book Five: A Blaze of Sun
Synopsis:
Welcome back to The Shade...
"Of course you know who I am. I'm a daughter of the darkness just as surely as you are his son..."
Ever
since his brief encounter with Emilia at The Shade, Derek's thoughts
and dreams have been haunted with images of the mysterious, beautiful
brunette. Plagued with guilt, he struggles to understand why he is so
drawn to this dark stranger from his past.
When Emilia suddenly
appears again on the island, Derek is both terrified and intrigued. But
this time, he is determined to involve Sofia and discover who this woman
is.
If only Derek and Sofia knew, Emilia is a mystery that should be left undiscovered...
